    weird.

    the rockets are already too closely associated with china. the houston rockets are an american team. no need for CNT colors on our jerseys.

    I wonder why yao's number is 11 in rockets while 13 in national team.Does that mean yao makes more efforts for his national team?

    What an incredible yao,who takes 15m from rox and little from national team but gives more efforts for the later one.It's yao's resposiblity that inspires yao to dedicate his nba championship for olympics.However ,i'm permistic for china's basketball team's olypic games.What's more ,YI and Wangzhizhi are far from stars.

    You are so overly sensitive that I am almost speechless.

    What is CNT team color? Red? It's also Rockets team color. I see a lot of yellow on that jersey. Please correct me if I am wrong, yellow is not the team color of the CNT. So what is the CNT team color that you are talking about?

    you're right. there is no yellow in the CNT jersey. :rolleyes:

    tell that to the entire US squad, where kobe is putting his surgery after the olympics, dwight who push to get his sternum right, Lebron who just injured himself during training.

    Tell the same thing to ginobili etc

    Playing for the country is an honour, and winning a medal at the olympics or just merely participating in it is a dream for every sportsman/sportswoman.

    Its just something where people like you will never understand.

    Oh, my bad. I frankly am not familiar with how the CNT jersey look.

    But that jersey is made to sell in the Chinese market. So of course they use the color that their potential customers there can identify with.

    If you go to rocketsshop.com and read careful, it is a replica. It is not intended to be sold over here. rocketsshop.com is just doing the Rockets fan a favor by making it available to us. There might be some Asian Rockets fan who actually want to own it. Why do you have problem with it?

    Don't get overly-sensitive. It's not good for your health.

    I think it's great that there are millions of chinese fans that watch the rockets.

    but i just don't think it's proper to sell an american team jersey with chinese team colors. even if that player is chinese.

    that would be like tony shumacher putting a german flag on his honda motored indy car.

    You are still wrong, dude. The 'yellow' that you see on the Chinese team jersey is actually 'gold'. The color on the jersey selling on rockets shop website is 'yellow'. So there is no yellow color on the Chinese team jersey and therefore there is no Chinese team jersey on that rockets jersey. Like someone has said, you are really getting sensitive about nothing.

    lol. so they just randomly picked two extremely identical colors?

    nobody is sensitive about this. OP asked what we thought, i gave a response. interpret it how you wish.

    So you are now not only sensitive about a Chinese basketball team color. You are even sensitive about a color similar to what's on their jersey too. That's bad. :cool:

    It still says Rockets on it.


    One time, they sold these ugly blue jerseys with a flying dildo on it. People still bought it. What is wrong with Les making a little more pocket change? He better spend it on the Rockets.
